Opening Logos

Fleming Era

The logo for the Art Fleming version was different from the one used for the Alex Trebek version, and consisted of jumbled letters; shown here was the logo used for the 1964-1975 version.

Here it is again, in color.

A simple bumper card.

Same style here, but with lights surrounding the oval. Used in 1974 nighttime.

The logo used for the 1978 revival. Similar to the previous logo, but more modernized.

Hey, there's no exclamation mark (!) on the show's title. This was the logo as seen in the video for "Weird Al" Yankovic's "I Lost On Jeopardy!"

Trebek Era

The logo used for the 1983 pilot using the same logo is Art Fleming's 1978 version.

The logo used for the 1984 pilot.

This is the actual logo of the 1984 pilot. Different font used.

The logo was changed to its current form when the show returned in syndication in 1984 with Alex Trebek hosting. During the first season of the syndicated version, the logo was rotating around a blue globe superimposed on the screen.

In early 1985, the sphere was in light blue and the letters on the sphere became red. This version of the opening lasted into the first two months of the 2nd season.

Shortly after the start of Season 2, the introduction had a white sphere and red letters.

One of many alternate color schemes for the Season 2 Globe, with a red sphere and blue letters.

The globe intro used during the first two months of the 3rd season. Yellow letters are on a light blue sphere with black lines divided into squares. It rotates at warp speed.

The globe intro used from November 1986 to July 1991. Yellow letters are on a teal sphere with black lines divided into squares. It rotates at normal speed.

The updated globe intro used during the first two seasons with the grid set. A blue sphere with the gold letters spins around slowly and shatters into pieces as the theme music begins.

This was only used on Olympics Games episodes.

Bumper Cards

The Jeopardy bumper card had many looks over the years, until the debut of the Sushi Bar set in November 1996.

This is what is usually seen on the game board until the third season.

These are the actual screenshots of the images shown above.

Used for a short period but continued to be used for tournaments until the end of season 8.

Circles

In the final year of the 1985-1991 set, Jeopardy! would appear on a box on a circle. The logo can be compared to a vintage Nissan logo.

Triangle Title Cards

Season 7 (1990-1991)

Season 10 (1993-1994)

Take note that there is no burgundy border on this logo...

...and on this logo.

From the Grid Set

In the intro starting in the 2nd year of the grid set, while the globe could be seen on the board on camera, it switched to the bumper card as the contestants made their entrance. As Alex made his entrance, the bumper card would "morph" into individual cards into the monitors.

In the 1st year, a portrait of Alex was on the board and would morph into the monitors as he made his entrance, then fade into the logo (either the globe or the tournament logo). For Double Jeopardy!, the card would morph into the monitors as the dollar amounts popped into the screens.

Copyright Cards

From 1984 to 1996, the bumper cards would have a copyright stamp at the bottom of the screen underneath Jeopardy!

Season 1

Seasons 1-5

Seasons 5-7

Super Jeopardy!

This was rare, as the copyright was usually seen at the end of the credits, preceding the Merv Griffin Enterprises and King World logos.

From the Grid Set

Copyright Texts

This copyright text was still used for the grid set from season 13. But...

...from November 1996, the text font changed for the sushi set.

This was used for the 14th season.

And so was this one.

This was used on early episodes of the 15th season.

Not only was the word "Copyright" added, but this rare closing text was used for later episodes of the 15th season.

The same applies for this one.

"Jeopardy Productions Inc." gets reintroduced. Also, Johnny's voiceover for the "Created by Merv Griffin" tag is removed.

The word "Copyright" is removed since the 17th season. An additional sentence seen here has been introduced and remains to this day.

Around May and June of 2001, the copyright text faded.

This closing copyright looks like a file folder when it was first used since July 2001.

This parallelogram copyright text was introduced since the 20th season.

Since the 22nd season, it's now shaped like a rectangle with a gold border.

The copyright text is all you seek. Seen on the show's 23rd season.

The © symbol is closer to the year, only used in late December 2007.

The font changes around the 26th season. But...

...it gets boxed in.

Seen here was also used for the "Created By Merv Griffin" text until 2015.

Since 2013, it's now a rounded purple rectangle.

This was used for the remainder of the show's 32nd season.

It changes to pink for the show's 33rd season.

Before the credit year, the social media symbols appear first.

This is what you'll see after the social media symbols which were introduced since the 34th season.

The social media symbols since season 36.

Logos from 1996 & Beyond

From this season on, the main logo would be used for the season, which would appear on the game board and additional screens. A more stylized version would be used only in the opening and would sometimes vary greatly from the main graphic.

Season 13

NOTE: For a brief period, the first Sushi Bar set logo had bumpers of its own. The logo was shown either on the bottom left or bottom right of the screen. That practice stopped the next season.

The main logo here is a basic version of the opening, on a solid background and missing the "response timer" dots

Here is the Double Jeopardy! logo again. Only looking bigger this time.

Season 14

When this logo appears on the category screens, the red squares are shrunk a little, and the Jeopardy! text is slightly bigger.
